127 Post Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10034

127 Post Avenue is a 5-story, 10-unit New Law Tenement building located in Inwood, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Fredi Zambrano. The property has faced persistent heating and safety issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints regarding window guards (April and June 2025), heat and hot water problems (January-February 2025), and other maintenance concerns.

Notable recent violations include open Class A and C violations from October 2024 regarding defective roof bulkhead doors at both the north and south entrances, and a re-padding issue with the stairwell door that poses potential safety concerns. The building has experienced recurring rodent activity, with compliance inspections showing rat presence in March 2025, November 2024, and August 2024, though there were some successful bait applications in previous years. The property has a documented history of maintenance challenges, particularly in 2023 in Apartment 4A, where multiple violations were recorded including heat and hot water issues, carbon monoxide detector problems, and a mice infestation that required abatement.

While the building has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2021, there have been various other maintenance issues requiring attention, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints throughout 2025. Recent inspections in 2025 also noted concerns with ceiling plaster, pest presence, and general building systems, though many of these issues were categorized as non-emergency. The building's inspection history shows a mix of closed and open violations, with particularly notable concerns about building security, heating systems, and maintenance of common areas.
